It will be ON this afternoon (Euro time). 8:45AM Golden BC time MST (4:45 PM CET)

Face hasn't been skied this season

The face has been closed this season. With bluebird conditions, around -12 degrees and practically no wind it's looking amazing!

Who are the favorites?

Solid performances in every category by an insane line-up of riders set the stage for mind blowing debut to the season opener in Hakuba. Podium finishers like Markus Eder (ITA-1st Place) Tanner Hall (USA-2nd Place), Gigi Rüf (AUT-2nd Place), Arianna Tricomi (ITA-1st Place) and Anna Orlova (RUS-1st Place) will be looking to carry their momentum into Kicking Horse and earn more crucial points in the world title race. However, they will surely be challenged by the strong line-up of riders hoping for better results in BC local favorites Nicole Kelly (CAN) and Logan Pehota (CAN) the event wildcard.

The starting list

Let's get ready for a great show and solid performances of the athletes!
